If you listen, you can hear it call, 
Wailaree...Wailaree... 
There is a river 
called the River of No Return. 
Sometimes it's peaceful 
and sometimes wild and free. 
Love is a traveler 
on the River of No Return. 
Swept on forever to be lost 
in the stormy sea. 
Wailaree... 
I can hear the river call, 
no return, no return... 
Wailaree... 
I can hear my lover call, 
"Come to me."... 
No return, no return... 
I lost my love on the river 
and forever my heart will yearn. 
Gone, gone forever 
down the River of No Return. 
Wailaree...Wailaree...Wailaree... 
You never return to me. 
...No return, no return...
